Lebanon concluded negotiations on an association agreement with the European Union in late 2001, and both sides initialed the accord in January 2002. It is included in the European Union's [[European Neighbourhood Policy]] (ENP), which aims at bringing the EU and its neighbours closer. Lebanon also has bilateral trade agreements with several Arab states and is working toward accession to the [[World Trade Organization]].

Lebanon enjoys good relations with virtually all of the other Arab countries (despite historic tensions with [[Libya]] and [[Syria]]), and hosted an [[Arab League]] Summit in [[2002 Arab League summit|March 2002]] for the first time in over 35 years. Lebanon is a member of the [[Francophonie]] countries and hosted the Francophonie Summit in October 2002 as well as the [[Jeux de la Francophonie]] in [[2009 Jeux de la Francophonie|2009]].
